| Summary/Abstract |
The centre of gravity of the global economy has been shifting to Asia. The region's economic integration is an idea whose time has come and Asia could learn useful lessons from Europe. However, according to C Sheela Reddy it is likely to follow its own distinctive path and India could play a multifaceted role in this historic process. The diverse cultural, political and social context across the continent makes it difficult to "sell" the notion of supranational institutions to individual countries. Nonetheless, even as Asia accords priority to internal integration, it would remain strongly connected to the rest of the world.

The European Union (EU) is an entity in re-evolution in relation to the development of its human rights strategy. This paper will examine the EU’s human rights advocacy in external relations in the context of normative power Europe (NPE), particularly in relation to the notion of the EU becoming a ‘norm entrepreneur’ with its revised human rights ‘toolbox’. The promotion and protection of human rights is cited as being at the core of European values, together with democracy and the rule of law, having both an internal and external focus in rights promotion and protection. This paper endeavours to present an analysis of the EU as norm entrepreneur in the context of human rights advocate. In so doing, it will examine the question of EU visibility in terms of human rights promotion. In its external action, the EU has a number of ‘tools’ in its human rights toolbox. By applying a rights inclusion analysis to the tool of digital diplomacy in an Asian context, the question of EU as norm entrepreneur is seen to be driven by strategic interests and partnerships. This paper argues that the EU is an ‘inadvertent’ norm entrepreneur through its programmatic pursuit of being an entrepreneur for social good in its external action rather than norm diffusion as experienced in a European context.

| Summary/Abstract |
What accounts for the growth of naval power in Asia, and are we witnessing a new naval arms race? Through a unique quantitative assessment of naval development in Asia, I show that economic and geostrategic factors are driving naval development in the region. Additionally, I examine the growth of naval might in China, Japan, India, and South Korea, and find evidence of a potential naval arms race in Asia. The article’s findings point to the importance of testing for regional variation in naval development and using specific weapons systems to test for evidence of an arms race.
